Homeobox D10 (HOXD10) Antibody – Goat Polyclonal

HOXD10: Sequence-specific transcription factor which is part of a developmental regulatory system that provides cells with specific positional identities on the anterior-posterior axis. Defects in HOXD10 are a cause of congenital vertical talus (CVT); also known as rocker-bottom foot deformity or congenital convex pes valgus. CVT is a dislocation of the talonavicular joint, with rigid dorsal dislocation of the navicular over the neck of the talus. This condition is usually associated with multiple other congenital deformities and only rarely is an isolated deformity. Belongs to the Abd-B homeobox family.
